The Black/Red Air Jordan XX3 Premier Hype Begins in Atlanta, New York, and Miami
Next Tuesday, December 23rd the super limited Black/Red Air Jordan XX3′s will drop at Jordan Brand’s top 23 stores in the US. What if we told you people have already started camping out? As odd as that may sound it’s true. TSG reader Mr. Madison informed us that people started lining up at Shoe Gallery (Miami) last week. He also told us that people were already lined up at Walter’s which is located in Atlanta. Apparently, the Florida hype scared the ATLiens causing them to line up a week in advance. As of yesterday 22 people were camping outside of Walter’s ATL. Also, it has been reported that several people have already started camping at the 34th St. Footaction in New York.
One of our readers and Walter’s employee hit us up with these cell phone images of the Atlanta line. Sorry for the poor quality images, but they are proof that people are indeed in line already. Stay tuned for more updates and this shows how much power hype has.
In other Black/Red XX3 news: Jordan Brand has yet to release the official list of the top 23 stores. Sources tell us they didn’t want people to camp out, but that’s hard to control. By now you should have already contacted the stores in your local area. Good luck getting a pair!

mannnnnnnn these dudes are crazy! this shows you what hype does and it was way more hype when the titanium 23′s in january. i guess this is what happens when they only release 529 pairs in the us. i feel sorry for anyone that doesn’t get a pair. nice news g-roc
man i just finish passing by the shoe gallery and theres like ten people already camping out lol some dudes even brought an xbox 360 lol
^These campers def have heart. I didn’t expect people to line up this early, but thats what I get for thinking…lol More coverage from the ATL line coming soon!
YOU CAN’T B SERIOUS!!!!!!!!!!!
6 DAYS CAMPIN. MAYBE THESE CAMPERS HAD A MESSAGE TO MJ. 6 DAYY= 6 CHAMPIONSHIPS.
(a.I) we been out here 7days not 6 l0l live from the dude under the yellow lookin cover
Jordan Brand needs to develop a system for retailers to stop this insanity. A legitimate raffle, or drawing. These fools would rather freeze their butts off wasting all this time and effort just to resell the shoes. Most of them are probably waiting in line for someone else anyway. This colorway doesnt even look that good. “Hi I don’t have a job nor do I go to school and along with my welfare check and foodstamps I resell sneakers.
wow I remember camping out like that now I have peep’s that own store’s that hold them for me infact I buy them the friday the day befor they come out…. these fool’s are down
i stay in texas and the store that had the
titaniums closed down(Houston kicks)… so i need to see a list
G-ROCK you should go interview these cats
I like the 23s, but Im not the type to campout for some shoes that comes out on Tuesday. Good luck to the others, I hope I can get a pair on Tuesday shoe gallery save me a size 8.5 please.
im planning on camping out in boston on saturday if its not too late because were supposed 2 get a storm on friday and im definitely not tryna catch that!! lol
Oh shizzit!! Its only Wednesday the 17th. I oughta pack my gear & head to over the Bay Bridge now. LOL. CDP on mind & my mind on CDP. Best of luck to them folks lining up, yal is determined….
Well well…. my homie in mia sparked it on last friday may look like 10 but they organized like us here. They have a ps3 and 360. We are getting a genartor tonight getting the games on and dvds. We have a heater and a party tent. This is crazy…oh yeah don’t forget la is lined up as well at the house of hoops
insanity, a week of camping?!! It’s winter, plus da colorway ight even dat hot !
Its not that cold especially in Georgia, today’s temp was in the 70s. But oh well, a sneaker like that is not worth the wait, because most of them are probably going to resell it.
This is crazy!!!! G-Roc – They got heart, I’ll give em that. I’ll be talkin to you soon M.
never would i line up this early. the money isn’t that good. more power to these guys for having the guts to campout this early
ima cry if I don’t get a pair real talk
They’re gonna feel like shit if these get retroed a few years from now…thats why I don’t wait on line for NOTHIN!!! Besides if this recession gets worse, they’re gonna wind up resellin these to nobody, or take a hella loss!! IMO, the black stealth’s is the only XX3 worth goin thru any hassle, followed by the motorsports. Anything else is uncivilized!!
That’s sad…90% of them copin to flip but 4wat people still tryna to get ride of the Titaniums ….hope sum of those people on da line are tru MJ fans and doin for da lone of the game ..
Wow 6 days n line just to resell. Should I bring yall some immodium cause that’s a long time to hold your shit in for…. Get at me
Gotta love the campers. Idk whether its hype or heart thats got them lined up like that.
I seen the line at Footaction 34th the other day. (CRAZY) Personally i thenk the XX3 are ugly deff not worth to wait out in this crappy snowy mixed weather and it’s only like 35 degrees.
DON’T COLLECT KICKS JUST CAUSE ITS A JORDAN!!!!!!!!!!!
COLLECT WHAT YOU LIKE.
DON’T COLLECT CAUSE OF THE HYPE.
mann this shit is fucking crazy. for the time they spend lining up they could make more money working a damn job. and you know at least half these dudes are just gonna resell. but yeah i agree retailers and JB need to come together on these releases and work out some kind of raffle or ticketing system to stop camp outs.
MAN IM CAMPED OUT RIGHT NOW..THIS SHIT IS CRAZY!! IM WRITING THIS FROM MY I-PHONE!! MY BABY-MA BRING ME McDONALDS 3 TIMES A DAY!! CANT MISS THESE SHOES..IF U AINT GOT A PAIR U LAME!
WOW. Wack ass. no life!
one wekk. ?! fuk dat
LMAO…SMH. What a bunch of dumb asses, they would rather camp out a week early for a pair of Ugly Jordans( I can understand overnight); rather than work and make some guap! People, are these XX3s that serious,IMO the only XX3s that were nice were those Motorsports(wizards colorway). lol. It’s crazy what Hype can do to most people! I bet if JB decided to retro the Spacejam 11′s again or the retro the Bordeaux VII’s; I wonder how many people would risk catching the flu for em?
waitin 6 days in line to resell is retarded..dam i hope they took some immodioum cause thats a long time to hold your shit…lol
Aint no shoe worth all dat man, dats ridiculous. Im going to leave my other thoughts to myself cause if you don’t have nothing nice to say then just don’t say nothing at all. Thats what I’ve been told. SMH
Rumor has it they will release a small amount of pairs at airjordanflightclub.com. Just FYI.
these guy’s have no jobs. they earn the same amount reselling as if they were to work a full time job.
yes its winter but its also miami and atlanta. it really doesn’t get that cold.
still though, i would never wait in line for a week. thats insane.
we are in recession.. no time for this fuckery.
these dudes really have no life eh? I dont support this at all.
wow
“i feel sorry for anyone that doesn’t get a pair”
i feel sorry for everyone that has to camp out for days for a pair of sneakers
these idiots better be standing in line for the 11/12 pack!! I know you’ll don’t think they are standing in line for the 23′s!!! Come on Stevie Wonder could see that… The 20th is Saturday so what the hell would make anyone think they are standing in line a damn week for those… I can’t believe you thought that.. Okay so when the people go to buy the pack Saturday what they going to have to wait til the other people get their shoes. SMFH,
there is no sneaker on the planet that would make me wait outside of a sneaker shop for a week. i dont care what its made of, who made it, what color it is, how many there are, i just dont care. being a sneakerhead is one of MANY things that make me who i am not the ONLY thing.
MAN PEOPLE ARE CRAZY I WAS THINKING ABOUT DOING 4 DAY AT HOH LA BUT DAMN PEOPLE BEEN CAMPING THERE SINCE SATURDAY MORNING DAMN THAT 10 DAYS NOW THATS CRAZY. PLUS IS DOESNT MAKE SINCE IF YOU RESELL IT LIKE YOU CAMPING FOR 100.00$ PER 24 HOURS AND ITS RAINING, NOW THAT PLAN CRAZY.
i know people are planning on reselling these for over a G but it’s still not worth it. like every1 else has said it’s a stupid move to camp out for a week? a week? it’s all hype and i bet not even half of these guys are gonna hold onto their pair. LOL at BBAKER, dude if you’re eating mickey d’s 3 times a day i can only imagine what you’re gonna look like after the camp out. but i give my respect to the ppl out there that are gonna actually keep their pair
I think it isnt worth it 4 these campers (if they were to resell)….most of them r kids….prob 21 n younger so if they do have a job that means at average there makin 300 a week full time….add that 2 the cost of the shoes which is what Like 230….so that’s 530 minus the value they will b after they release which will b about 1000….so that’s about 470 profit…n I don’t think its a good idea to stay outside for a week for that much…but that’s imo…all for the love of the hype! I mean shoes…right?
Nahh yo dis is crazy!!!I haven’t done this in so long…is this what has come 2…im surprised poeple dont think they camping out 4 the package cuz those release saturday and i live in NY and i dont wanna see this when i go pick em up friday.
STR8 HYPEBEATS….ALL OF THEM!!!!!
mannnnn….its just not that serious!!!
must be nice to take a week off of work to sleep outside and hang around other musty campers
for all those dudes in NYC, their is a nice storm comin on fri.
get ur tents up and ur snow/rain gear out..
i wud do the same thing if i had the money for them but the colorways is not that nice i would camp for 11/12 pack but i get that early anyway because my uncle owns a shoe store
yo G-roc,OFF TOPIC
did you see they are releasing the Bo’s next Fall, the colorway is white/light zen grey-total orange-stealth. the color code is 302346-106, and they look lust like the 1990 OG’s and the 98 Retro’s
I still have my 98 Retro’s, but this was the shoes that started it all for me back in 1990 in 4th grade( I just moved to a new town, and I needed a pair of shoes to shit on everyone elses and these were them),
I won’t be happy unless I get at least 5 pairs
A week to flip em? hey desperate times call for desperate measure is what i always say. 23′s are ugly anyway so if can get 100-200 dollar profit from camping, i wud probably do it. I dont hate em for it. I hate the guys who are actually gona keep em.
why would you hate someone who is buying a shoe with the plans of keeping them?
good luck to those in line, it’d suck if they went home empty handed. or not your size…! but nevertheless, good luck to you ppl who are looking to get it
